❤️ WHAT IS THE DANGER OF L-THYROXINE❓ - a frequently asked question at the reception. Many patients with hypothyroidism are afraid to take L-thyroxine. But it is prescribed FOR THE PURPOSE OF REPLACEMENT THERAPY - that is, in a situation when the thyroid gland's own hormones are not enough. Let's remember the MAIN FUNCTIONS OF THYROID HORMONES: ✅ ENERGY METABOLISM - the speed of all metabolic reactions, ✅ WEIGHT, ✅ FUNCTION OF THE HEART AND VESSELS, regulation of blood pressure and pulse, ✅ BRAIN FUNCTION, ???? - memory, speed of thinking, ✅ MOOD, ✅ LIBIDO and fertility, ✅ INTESTINE FUNCTION, ✅ WATER METABOLISM. WHEN IS L-THYROXINE PRESCRIBED❓ When there is NOT ENOUGH OWN FT4. ????⚕️WHAT ARE THE IMPORTANT RULES FOR PRESCRIBING L-THYROXINE❓ ????When prescribing L-thyroxine, START WITH A LOW DOSE (not with a full replacement dose), but with low doses and then increase to target doses. Let's remember the calculated doses of L-thyroxine: ✅ for non-pregnant women, the average calculated dose is 1.6 mcg per kg of ideal weight. That is, for example, for a woman weighing 70 kg, the average calculated dose is 112 mcg. The most important thing when using calculated doses is to smoothly introduce L-thyroxine under the control of the state of the heart and blood vessels. ✅ For pregnant women, the calculated doses are higher, the average calculated dose for pregnant women is 2.3 mcg per kg of weight. We do not administer the full calculated dose, but low doses, and gradually increase the dose. ????THE OLDER THE PATIENT, THE SLOWER WE INCREASE THE DOSE OF L-THYROXINE, taking into account the function of the cardiovascular system, blood pressure and pulse. ???? WE MONITOR THE PRESSURE AND PULSE, especially actively during the first 2 weeks of administration, since L-thyroxine can increase the pulse and blood pressure. ????WE EXAMINATE THE ADRENAL GLANDS IN SEVERE HYPOTHYROIDISM. With severe hypothyroidism, adrenal insufficiency often develops. In this situation, we administer therapy for adrenal insufficiency first, and in parallel with the restoration of the adrenal glands, we administer L-thyroxine (this applies specifically to severe hypothyroidism). And we come to the question: SO WHAT IS DANGEROUS ABOUT L-THYROXINE? IT IS DANGEROUS ABOUT OVERDOSE? An overdose of L-thyroxine is characterized by symptoms typical of thyrotoxicosis: palpitations, heart rhythm disturbances, heart pain, anxiety, tremors, sleep disturbances, sweating, increased appetite, intestinal dysfunction. Also, when taking L-THYROXINE, IT IS DANGEROUS NOT TO MONITOR THE CONDITION, irregularly adjust the dose AND GO TO HYPOTHYROIDISM. L-thyroxine deficiency, incorrectly selected dose - symptoms of hypothyroidism persist. Another dangerous condition against the background of replacement therapy with l-thyroxine is DISTURBANCE OF PERIPHERAL CONVERSION OF FT4 (thyroxine) into FT3 (triiodothyronine) - tissue hypothyroidism - symptoms of hypothyroidism also persist. ????⚕️ If YOUR THYROID FUNCTION IS IMPAIRED, the TRANSFORMATION MARATHON will help you: ????
